Nice place, but no availability of food and drink on a Sunday night.
Pros:

The room was clean and comfortable. The food on Saturday night and pleasant. The breakfast on Monday was nice.

Cons:

The kitchen closes at 16:00 on a Sunday and the bar at 18:00. After this, there is no provision, even for residents. When I questioned this, the response was "it is in our terms and conditions". This was not made clear when I was booking or when we checked in.
